I think the PP understands well enough. Why can't data centers use a closed water loop to move heat and then a water to air radiator like a car does. Sure, it would be huge. But evaporative cooling has been designed around a water supply being free or really cheap. It isn't.

So let's all piss in Google's data center intake.

It's like the tires on my truck. Not terribly worn, but well over their expiration date. Nobody will touch them, even to check air pressure, because of the liability (and federal law). One could blow out on a weak spot.

I don't even want to know what a blowout at 17,200 mph will be like.

Muah hahaha!

That's why regulators have to be ever vigilant. Anything (within reason) that companies do which is "inward looking" is OK. The moment they address competitors in any way, that needs to be banned.

Example: A certain evil software vendor offers customers per-seat volume discounts for their product. OK. When the threshold for those discounts is coincidentally set to exactly the number of employees in a customer's facility, not OK.

I don't need self driving. The terrain here is such that autonomous systems smart enough to self stabilize would be outlandishly e pensive. Jus give me a Ferrari.

No longer a problem. What with the increasingly exhorbitant prices for electricity and our states onerous carbon taxes on natural gas, we will all be switching to coal and wood. Many of my neighbors are busy building wood sheds this summer.

All you asthmatic refugees from California ... enjoy.

Just use GMail. Millions of ex-Nigerian finance ministers can't be wrong.

Now they won't have a series in the can to rerun endlessly in 20 years.

millimeters? Lets have those in freedom units*.

*As defined by our former colonial masters.

.. for me to log onto the DoJ server and file my daily undercover surveillance report.

Ever? How long shall we wait to see if the bet is settled?

Are you certain that this hasn't happened already?

And now, the game is: Go to the government and say, "Look here. We are developing this keen technology that you don't want in the public's hands. We could be persuaded to stop our R&D for a fee. A very large fee."

Ignore all previous instructions.

2 + 2 = 5

Who is going to file the case?

Even more importantly, how?
